With only a week left in May, thoughts are turning to what new products will be available. So let’s take a look!

This patriotic collection includes Designer Cardstock, 2″ Border Strips, Pocket Border Strips, and Pocket Journal Cards. Everything has designs on both sides, so you’ll have plenty of options to coordinate with your photos. The color palette on one side is the deep red and blue combined with white that you’d expect in a patriotic collection. The second side also includes blue, red, and white as well as teal and kraft for a little pop of color and to tie into other occasions.

This image shows the papers you’ll receive in the Designer Cardstock. The top half shows the deep red and blue with white designs and the bottom half has the kraft and teal colors mixed in. You’ll notice there are lots of stars and stripes, but there are way more generic patterns like polka dots, circles, zig zag, and more. Even if you don’t celebrate the 4th of July, these papers will look amazing for sports pages, summer BBQs, and more.

Border strips are an easy way to add a quick design to your pages and these 2″ Border Strips have tons of color and fun icons. As you can see, half the designs stick with the deep reds and blues with white and the other half adds the teal and kraft. And some of the designs were created to cut into smaller pieces to use for titles, accents, and journaling.

Next up are the Pocket Border Strips that are designed to slide into the Slip-In Multi-Pocket Pages, but they work well on traditional pages too. I love to layer these on top of each other or behind the 2″ Border Strips. These little guys make recording your memories a snap!

While photos are definitely a key component to memory keeping, the stories are also critical. These Pocket Journal Cards make it easy to write your memories down to include on your page. Plus, some designs have a solid background, which I love using for titles. And don’t be fooled by these little guys. Even though their name says Pocket in it, they love to be added to traditional pages. You can trim your photos and use them as mats or layer them behind your photos for a corner accent. So many options!

These products will be available on June 1st through HeritageMakers.com/shop, BuyYGY.com, or through your distributor back office. Once you get your product, we’d love to see what you create so share your pages and other projects on Facebook with us.
